Target Addiction*

I am a Target addict. I really and truly cannot help myself. It's so bad, in fact, that M knows Target's address by heart because it shows up on our bank statements so much!! I swear, I am there at least once a week, if not more.

My biggest problem is going in the mornings BEFORE work. I have an even worse habit of not liking anything my closet, throwing something on and making sure I leave the house early so I can find something at Target, CHANGE IN THE BATHROOM, and then head to work.

I swear, if there is an Targetholic Anonymous group, I need to be a part of it.

Yesterday was no exception. I have this super cute dress [well, actually about three of them, all in different colors] and was wanting to wear my tights and boots that I love love love.

Unfortunately, it was a little chilly. And I didn't have a sweater that would work well with it. Problem solved! TARGET RUN!

Unfortunately [or fortunately, however you want to look at it!] they have the same dress I was wearing, but it new colors. INCLUDING YELLOW! I had been dying for a yellow one. IT WAS MEANT TO BE!

So, I grabbed two more colors, including one that went better with my boots [and duh -- changed in the bathroom!] and a sweater. Problem solved.

Plus I looked wicked cute yesterday. Double win!

M has yet to catch on to yesterdays shopping trip, but he'll figure it out soon when I bust out the yellow one for a friendly get together tomorrow night. Whoops :)

Target is evil. It wasn't so bad when I had to drive an hour or order online, but now it's only 3 miles from my house. Evil I tell you. And the Starbucks inside is just as bad. I made this mistake of buying my kid a cookie once to hold him over while I grabbed a few things, and now we have to get one EVERY time.

PS I bought that dress in 8 colors last year!!! And I just bought it in two of the rayon prints for this summer. I am looking into figuring out the pattern so I can make the dress in a sturdier fabric. Glad to know we have the same taste! I just work it 9 months preggers bc I just missed it! xo
